God Emperor’s Angel of Death

Standard Terra calendar, 940.M41

Supreme Sun Star domain, solar system, Mars, rusty waste soil

This one is called The planet of the "Red Star" is hailed as a miracle of the Milky Way. In the early 22nd millennium, it became the first planet to be transformed by humans.

When the planet became habitable, Mars was ruled by an industrial group, and soon developed into the first nest capital of the world and a center of industrial and scientific progress.

In the age of dark technology, Mars and Earth, who belong to the same Imperium, live together peacefully.

In the era of disputes, Mars experienced centuries of isolation, and the entire planet was in anarchy.

For a long time, Mars was cut off from Earth by a super subspace storm, and Mars’s own atmospheric barrier also collapsed and exposed to deadly radiation, which brought catastrophes to the surface. .

During this period of time, the radiation bunker was the only hope for mankind to survive on Mars. Technology was the key to maintaining the survival of mankind on Mars at that time, and the respect for Om Messiah was also during this period of time. The prototype began to appear and began to develop.

When the Terra Unification War ended, Mars had developed a culture completely different from that of Earth. The religious organization known as the Mechatheism ruled the planet with high-tech means. What they respect is Faith named "Mechanical God".

After the God Emperor strongly unified Earth, he immediately visited Mars and signed a covenant with the Mechanical God Cult, bringing the scarlet star back to the embrace of mankind.

During the Great Expedition, the Titan Legion on Mars and the newly created Space Marine Legion fought side by side for Imperium. At that time, Mars and the Forge World to which many mechanical gods belonged almost provided Imperium. All of Man's munitions and equipment have penetrated into all aspects of the Imperium society.

During the Horus Rebellion, Mars also became a key battlefield. A battle broke out between the mechanical sect loyal to Imperium and the dark mechanical sect who took refuge in Horus.

At first in the civil war, the Dark Mechanics won the victory, the loyalists retreated to Earth, and the traitors occupied Mars.

As Horus advanced, the Imperial Fist Legion blocked Mars for several years. In the final stage of the solar system war, Mars was "liberated" by Horus' rebels.

In the Battle of Terra, Horus was killed, the rebels were completely defeated, and Mars once again returned to the command of Imperium.

But this does not mean that Mars has achieved peace. In fact, decades after the end of the Great Rebellion, the "liquidation" work has been going on, and countless technologies have been destroyed in the flames of war. The technical level of Mars' mechanical god From now on, Western Mountain has become thinner, relying solely on the recovery of past heritage to survive.

As the only light of science and technology for mankind, Mechatronics almost involves fields that humans need science and technology, whether it is people’s livelihood, military, or medical, education and other fields.

There are only three areas that the Mechatronics can’t involve, the Imperial Palace of Terra, the Assassin Hall, and the Astarte Order, because these three areas have their own independent scientific and technological production systems, and Highly enclosed.

But among them, Astarte has the most ambiguous relationship with Mechanicism.

On the one hand, as a military organization, Astarte will have a large number of battleships and weapons that need to be updated and maintained.

On the other hand, the Astarte Order, as an independent armed force of the Imperium, is highly enclosed and will not allow other institutions to penetrate into the Order.

Therefore, in this special relationship, technical sergeants came into being.

A Space Marine Chapter will discover those combat brothers in the company who are particularly sensitive to machinery as pre-selected technical sergeants, and those selected warriors will be sent to Mars as "students" for thirty years. Training.

There they will be taught the knowledge about the god of all machines, how to use engineering rune for divination, how to maintain and bless the ceremony, these great knowledge must be fully understood and remembered by the technical sergeant.

The knowledge involved in these thirty years of learning not only includes a large number of tangled and complicated maintenance ceremony and hymns, but also has to learn a variety of solutions to deal with any situation that can be encountered on the battlefield .

A fully qualified technical sergeant will have the ability to "perceive" the "pain" of damaged machinery and heal it.

After completing the training, the technical sergeants will return to the Chapter where they are located in accordance with the regulations, and will exist as a link between the Mechanic Cult and the Astarte Order, which makes them appear very close to the other brothers in the battle. Different.

Rico Rodris from Astral Knight has also passed the tenth year of his Mars study abroad career.

For the first ten years, he studied in the Holy Palace of All Machines, where he mastered a lot of basic knowledge, as well as a large number of complex terminology, and even more complex code programming teaching.

These may be difficult for a mortal, but for an Astarte, it is not very complicated.

In the process, he also got to know several warriors of the same batch as him, namely Rui Boronat from Raven Guard, and Loik Lu from giant dragon Ge, and Harland Alucard from the Pioneer Chapter.

Among them, the giant dragon Chapter is of particular interest to Rogers, because the members of this Chapter will perform ceremony skin stabs and embed electronic circuits in deep wounds to make them seem to be imprisoned The stars in the cage shone likewise.

Leuk Lugo once asked about the meaning of these metal tattoos, but the other party kept silent.

But Rui Boronat speculated that they might be descended from Ferus Manus, but Harland Alucard retorted that Leuk Lu Ge lacks the cold logic of Iron Hand. On the contrary, he is often led by strong emotions-to put it simply, he is easy to use emotions.

Anyway, in the ruthless mechanical land of Mars, having a few good friends is finally some comfort for Rogers.

And today, they have also completely ended their studies in the temple, and will go to a new place to learn new knowledge.

One point that needs to be emphasized is that the term "technical priest" is a very broad general term, which includes thousands of roles with different titles and different titles in the mechanical order, and these roles can generally There are four types: Sage, Genesis, Logic, and Blacksmith.

Sage is responsible for carrying out an obscure agenda, and is responsible for the important task of command, regardless of the result of the agenda is often either a great achievement or a terrifying disaster.

The logicians are high-level technical priests of the Mechanicians. They integrate analysts, statisticians, and logistics experts. Their mission is to forecast future trends and to assess the expenditures of the Mechanicians. Need to make predictions, and because of their responsibilities, they are often considered to be the prophets of the Mechanicism.

Genetics keep exploring the mysteries of living things. They can create the most incredible strange semi-mechanical lifeforms, or slaughter countless Xenos, just so that they can understand the secrets of Xenos' life and social metabolism.

The blacksmith forges and saves and collects those amazing weapons of war, from gorgeous gamma pistols to huge mechanical arks beyond ordinary people's thinking.

Among these fields, the first three fields all contain secrets that the Mechatronics do not want to share with outsiders. Only in the last field, they are reluctant to take out some in exchange for the support of the Astarte Order The price.

Therefore, the study of technical sergeants is concentrated in the field of blacksmiths. What Rogers and the others are going to is a temple that is mastered by the highest honor of blacksmiths, the master of the forge-horse Leotis casts the temple.

But before going there, Rogers will go to the Temple of All-Knowing once again.
